At Precisely, we're not just building software — we're shaping the future of data integrity. As a global leader in data quality, data enrichment, and location intelligence, Precisely helps thousands of the world's most trusted brands make confident decisions with data they can rely on. We're an AI-first organization, which means artificial intelligence isn't a buzzword here — it's woven into how we build products, how we work, and how we think about solving complex problems for our customers. When you join Precisely, you join a team of curious, driven innovators who believe that better data makes the world run better. If you're ready to do meaningful work at the intersection of AI and data — and help define what's possible — we'd love for you to apply!
Overview:
The AI Program Manager drives delivery and adoption of Precisely’s AI-enabled PMO tool across Professional Services, bridging emerging AI capabilities with the program and project management that runs billable delivery. This is a billable, client-facing role: alongside owning the internal program end to end, the AI Program Manager leads client engagements, carries a target utilization rate, and translates complex AI concepts into decision-ready plans for both internal stakeholders and clients.
What you will do:
- Own the AI-enabled PMO program end to end — from use-case intake through rollout and adoption.
- Identify high-impact AI use cases across PS workflows and build the ROI case (hours saved, margin).
- Deliver billable client engagements, applying AI-enabled PMO capabilities in the field.
- Lead AI enablement and training for Professional Services, PMO and OPS.
- Govern AI outputs , standards, evaluation, and reconciliation before rollout.
- Run program cadence: backlog, stakeholder alignment, status, and reporting.
What we are looking for:
Required:
- Bachelor’s degree (business or technical). Equivalent work experience will be accepted in place of the education requirement.
- 6–8+ years in program/project management (PMP), leading cross-functional programs end to end.
- Client-facing delivery in a professional services / consulting environment, comfortable carrying a utilization/billable target.
- Stakeholder management across technical and non-technical audiences, up to executive level.
- Agile and traditional delivery fluency (Scrum/Kanban, waterfall/hybrid) with PM tooling (MS Project, Wrike, ClickUp, Monday, Smartsheet, or equivalent).
- Strong KPI/ROI and metrics discipline — able to define, measure, and report program value.
- Working understanding of AI/GenAI, with excellent written, verbal, and executive presentation skills; PMP, PMI-ACP, or CSM certification a plus.
- Travel is required: Yes – Approximately 20%
AI Skills/Knowledge: Precisely is an AI-first organization. All employees apply AI tools daily to accelerate work, improve output quality, and eliminate low-value tasks. Be fluent with generative AI tools (e.g., Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude), able to critically evaluate their outputs, and quick to adopt new capabilities as they emerge.
- AI/GenAI fluency — practical grasp of LLMs, AI agents, and AI-enabled PMO/automation tools, including where AI fails.
- Prompt engineering — structured prompts that generate plans, documentation, analysis, and decision materials.
- Data literacy — what data exists, how AI uses it, and the data-quality, privacy, and security implications.
- Responsible AI — working knowledge of AI ethics, bias, governance, and emerging regulation.
- AI across the delivery lifecycle — planning, risk, status, reporting, and knowledge capture.
- Change management & AI adoption — moving teams from pilot to scaled adoption.
Preferred Skills (a plus but not required):
- AI/GenAI certification (PMI GenAI for PMs, applied-AI, or responsible-AI credential).
- Prior experience standing up an internal AI/automation program or PMO transformation and measuring its ROI.
- Background in data management, data integrity, or analytics delivery (aligned with Precisely’s portfolio).
- Familiarity with AI agents / agentic workflows and AI governance frameworks (e.g., NIST AI RMF).
- Consulting experience translating AI strategy into client-facing roadmaps.
